PawPaw Rod is Rodney Hulsey, a singer and rapper hailing from Oklahoma City.
Rod debuted at the end of 2020 with “HIT EM WHERE IT HURTS”, which blended 60s soul with the cadence of hiphop – like a woozier Bill Withers or Gil Scott-Heron. The record quickly found its way to the top of global viral charts and in an Apple commercial too, with not much information out there about Rod except that he was a Capricorn who loved cowboy boots.
“A PawPaw Rod EP”, out 17 September 2021 on LA's Godmode (who've brought you artists such as Channel Tres, Yaeji, and JPEGMAFIA), hopefully fills in the gaps. PawPaw wisdom is hard-nosed, hard-earned, matter-of-fact – but delivered with love too. Musically it's a focused four-song offering that follows the contours of "HIT EM", co-written and produced entirely by Godmode head honcho Nick Sylvester with help from longtime collaborator Adam Moerder.
why you worry about the little things it's the big shit that’s gon’ kill ya kill ya anyway roll your problems up and smoke the pain and blow out all the bullshit, blow out all the bullshit

LSD and champagne while I play Coltrane dance like nobody looking what a hell of a lane

why you worry about the little things it's the big shit that’s gon’ kill ya kill ya anyway roll your problems up and smoke the pain and blow out all the bullshit, blow out all the bullshit
